The moisture will ride the leading edge of hot and more humid air. Meanwhile, drenching showers and storms are forecast to hover in the Deep South from Florida and southern Georgia to Louisiana. Spotty storms will occur north of this area to the mid-Atlantic. Hot and humid conditions are in store from the southern Plains to the middle part of the Missis- sippi Valley. Severe storms will push eastward across the Upper Midwest.

Though China resents the highly visible presence of the U.S. armed forces in Asia, especially the South China Sea, it has gradually overcome its reluctance and shown a willingness to en- gage that the sides hope will help avoid conflicts. Below is a look at the Benfold's visit and some of the steps the sides have taken to build their relationship: What'sthe significance of the visit? The Benfold's visit is the first to China by an Amer- ican warship since Beijing responded furiously to a Hague-based international arbitration tribunal's rul- ing that its expansive South China Sea maritime claims had no basis in law. The fact the visit went ahead appears to show that Beijing now values the military-to-mili- tary relationship too much to allow it to be derailed by other events as was once the case. Qingdao is the base of China's northern fleet and is thus less sensitive than ports to the south closer to hotspots, such as Taiwan and the South China Sea. How have the sides responded to the arbitration ruling? China was incensed by the ruling and declared it null and void. It renewed its commitment to defend its sovereignty claims and continue work on man- made islands in the Spratly island group that have been heavily criticized by the U.S. and others as adding to re- gional tensions. Beijing has also launched what it says will be regular aerial pa- trols over the South China Sea and says it will consider whether to declare an air defense identification zone over all or part of the water body. The U.S. has called on China to respect the ruling, but has not staged another freedom of navigation mis- sion in which its ships sail near China's artificial is- lands, which draw warnings and rebukes from Beijing. What have the sides done to build trust? Apart from exchanging visits, China and the U.S. have sought to reach agree- ments on the rules of the road and work with each other on non-combat ori- ented training missions. At a multilateral forum in Qingdao in 2014, the two navies agreed to a Code for Unplanned Encounters at Sea that seems to have al- lowed them to avoid con- frontations. Last year, they added a similar agreement on aerial encounters be- tween their military pilots that calls for, among other things, maintaining a se- cure distance, communi- cating clearly and avoiding rude body language. This year, China also took part in the world's largest maritime drills, known as RimPac, hosted by the U.S. every two years near Hawaii.
